The Reds, who were held to one hit by Juan Marichal in the first eight innings, rallied for three runs in the ninth and defeated the Giants, 3-2. Pat Corrales, who singled in the third, had the Reds' lone hit until Jimmy Stewart and Pete Rose singled in the ninth and Ty Cline bunted safely to load the bases. Marichal walked Lee May to force in the Reds' first run before giving way to Jerry Johnson, who was greeted with a two-run single by Tony Perez. [The Sporting News]
